A climb to remember - The walk began from Key Tours at 3.45 and walked past the old buildings en route to the Acropolis. Here we were told Myths of the Gods and their experiences in the original. Athens. As we slowly climbed the hill, our enthusiastic and well informed guide took us through all the side buildings. Those still standing, like the theatre - imagine being able to stand where the theatre first began, as one person stepped out from thw chorus of dancers and singers and spoke to the audience. Slowly through the original hospitals, past the springs and the huge Roman built theatre we climbed with stories continuing. Although qe were impatient to arrive, when we when appreciated that we were part of history. The long line of people who came to wonder at the superb buildings and praise the God Athena. When the sun shone on the buildings as it sank in the west, the columns of this geometrically perfect building glowed golden in the light.

Worth the visit - I learned a lot and got a better understanding of the long history of this ancient place. It was hot. Bring plenty of water and a hat.

Athens must - Guide FAY was amazing and so knowledgeable with facts and shared information about Athens, food, culture and history. Very well organised tour. Acropolis tour was a highlight too definitely go for the earlier tour if possible as day heats up. That guide was amazing too could not fault any part of the tour!

Great experience! - Great experience! The tour was amazing and our guides were even better! Our acropolis guide was very knowledgeable and knew everything about the history. When it was just us and our driver / guide it was a unique one on one experience that made it so much fun

Good choice for a hot day in Athens - I am so glad we decided on the guided tour. Peggy was a wonderful tour guide. She was very knowledgeable about all things in Athens. The driver was great. The sprinker van was clean, comfortable, AND cool. I highly recommend using a guided tour & transportation.
